Within- and Between-Person Correlates of Affect and Sleep Health Among Health Science Students.

Background/objectives: To examine the relationships between state affect and sleep health at within- and between-person levels among health science students.

Methods: A correlational design was used and 54 health science students were included. The participants completed baseline and 7-day ambulatory assessments in a free-living setting.

Mindfulness therapy for patients with coronary heart disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Aim: Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a prevalent cardiovascular disease with high mortality rates worldwide. Patients with CHD often experience adverse psychological stress related to the disease's diagnosis, treatment and recovery phases. This stress can hurt sleep quality and overall quality of life.

Nutritional management interventions and multi-dimensional outcomes in frail and pre-frail older adults: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Frailty, a prevalent geriatric syndrome, presents challenges exacerbated by malnutrition. Nutritional Management Interventions (NMIs) offer hope in frailty reversal, necessitating exploration of their multi-dimensional outcomes.

Objectives: Assess NMIs' impact on frail and pre-frail older adults across diverse outcomes.

Incidence and risk factors of asymptomatic bacteriuria in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: a meta-analysis.

Background: The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is increasing each year and has become one of the most prominent health concerns worldwide. Patients with T2DM are prone to infectious diseases, and urinary tract infections are also widespread. Despite a comprehensive understanding of urinary tract infection (UTI), there is a lack of research regarding primary prevention strategies for asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB).

Effects of traditional Chinese exercises on the rehabilitation of patients with chronic heart failure: A meta-analysis.

Background: With the development of rehabilitation medicine, exercise therapy has gradually become one of the methods to prevent and treat cardiovascular diseases. It is widely used in clinic because it can further reduce the mortality rate, improve clinical symptoms, restore the activity ability of the body, improve the quality of life of patients and reduce the hospitalization rate. Traditional Chinese exercises have developed rapidly in recent years, which mainly include Baduanjin, Tai Ji, etc.

DIAPH1 Promotes Laryngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Progression Through Cell Cycle Regulation.

The diaphanous related formin 1 (DIAPH1) protein is involved in the regulation of dynamic cytoskeleton reorganization, which is closely related to mitosis and the cell cycle. Cell cycle disorders are generally regarded as important underlying causes of many cancers. In the current study, we have revealed that DIAPH1 expression is an independent prognostic factor for overall survival in patients with laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) and that DIAPH1 promotes colony formation, cell proliferation, and G1/S progression in LSCC cells.

Circular RNAs and their roles in head and neck cancers.

Circular RNAs are abundant endogenous non-coding RNA with no 5' cap and 3' polyadenylation tail that modify liner mRNAs and have no terminal structures. Our knowledge of the biogenesis of circular RNAs has been expanded, and circular RNAs were shown to be key regulators of various diseases, especially cancers. Head and neck cancers are the sixth most popular cancers worldwide, and the overall survival rates remain unsatisfactory.

DIAPH1 Is Upregulated and Inhibits Cell Apoptosis through ATR/p53/Caspase-3 Signaling Pathway in Laryngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

Cancer bioinformatics has been used to screen possible key cancer genes and pathways. Here, through bioinformatics analysis, we found that high expression of diaphanous related formin 1 (DIAPH1) was associated with poor overall survival in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). The effect of DIAPH1 in LSCC has not been previously investigated.

Characterization of selective exosomal microRNA expression profile derived from laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma detected by next generation sequencing.

Exosomes are nanometer‑scale extracellular vesicles derived from almost all types of cells and key signaling mediators between cancer cells and their microenvironment. Certain microRNAs (miRNAs) are selected for exosome packing and exclusion from parental cells, while other miRNAs are selectively retained by cells, suggesting a biological role for these miRNAs in tumor malignant progression. In the present study, we isolated and characterized the exosomes derived from the laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) cell line AMC‑HN‑8 for the first time, and identified a subset of miRNAs enriched in the exosomes compared with parental cells, such as miR‑1246, miR‑1290, miR‑335‑5p, miR‑127‑3p and miR‑122‑5p through small RNA sequencing combined with reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR (RT‑qPCR) analysis.

Pretreatment lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio as an independent prognostic factor for hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma.

Objective: The aim of this work was to analyze the clinical characteristics and pretreatment peripheral blood cell counts of patients with hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HPSCC) and determine their relationship with clinical outcomes.

Methods: One hundred ninety-seven patients were eligible for the study. The relationship between survival and pretreatment peripheral absolute neutrophil count (ANC), absolute lymphocyte count (ALC), absolute monocyte count (AMC), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance, t-test, and univariate and multivariate analysis.
